Best INDOOR 3D PLANE??
Hey guys im wondering what is a great indoor 3d plane that doesnt cost much? Im only looking to spend about $100-185.
In the past ive built 2 indoor planes but they both came out to be too heavy because I used a 70g motor a 3s 800mah. Please link some really nice electronic setups with the arf planes. And what do you guys think about using hot glue at a low level heat? What is an alternative to hot glue that does a better job and doesnt put on a lot of weight?

a 4-Site is pretty good fun indoors
If you have a reasonable indoor space to fly in - a Thunder Tiger "EPP" series plane is a blast also. I have built a lot of them using hot glue (and Staples for holding the hinges in place) - never had a problem with that.

Hey thanks for that suggestion. I took a look at the plane but what kind of glue should I get to build her? And is there a certain technique when we apply that hot glue...? It is kinda heavy but I'm not to sure... Wouldn't CA crack the flushed edges?
Let me know guys and please keep bringing in the planes...
Also what do you guys think about the new BNF Extra from Horizon? I have a dx7 and that would be perfect, but it seems kinda pricey...

Do you have any links?
And if you kill your 4-Site airframe there is a multitude of aftermaket airframes for your gear.
